Very Computer

Hello,

I need to obtain an answer to the following question.  If you know it,

would be very much appreciated.  I do not read this newsgroup often, so
messages posted here will likely be missed by me.

Can Windows NT act like an SCO UNIX dial-up server in the sense that people
on the network or people who dial-in to the network via a serial connection
can telnet to the Windows NT server and be presented with a simple
command-prompt interface?  We do not want the overhead of a full graphical
interface, but we do want the shell to be running on the server (the client
is essentially a dumb terminal for all intents and purposes).

We currently have Windows NT 3.51 Server -- we can upgrade if necessary.
If Windows NT does not have this feature built-in, is there a third party
product that will do it?  If it is not possible at all, how close can we
get to the functionality we want?

Migrating is a big step, and since we do not want to take that step
blindly, any help would be appreciated.

 The functionality of a Telnet Server is not included under NT, But do
you have many implementations, on the NT Resource Toolkit there is one,
also at www.opennt.com, Also on the GNU utilities, port to NT, and I'm
sure I forget other implementations.

<<If it is not possible at all, how close can we get to the

 DO not worry, you could get even the functionality of a full Xclient,
using the citrix winframe, see info at www.citirix.com, a bit expensive
for a simple telnet server.
